We are getting closer to our Mental Health & Me competition deadline, (1st Sept)
To stir up some inspiration we have asked our previous What's Your Story? participants to contribute their work. Please enjoy the next weeks worth of writing and hopefully be encouraged to write your own... 

My Journey

Life’s weight – several journeys – high expectations – further, further – unknown tomorrow – respectable self – expecting love – many disappointments.

My journey – all mine – tiredness, stress – new energy tomorrow – sleep revives me – stay fit – who knows what’s ahead? – share life – who with? – lonely journey.

Variable journey – try something new – try something known – consciousness always expanding – body grows – taste goodness – breathe air – exercise mind – be there – be strong.

Hateful journey – wickedness everywhere – stay unpunished – be careful – have fun – try luck – maybe gamble – rise above – dance, sing – curse lots – maybe win – get wealthy – seek charitable causes – pleasant journey.

Join group therapy – chat, laugh – contribute something – take part – make friends – share experiences – avoid trouble – be comfortable – smile perhaps – sexual relationships hardly ever happen – life goes on – amazing journey.

Find work – earn money – do something challenging – live abroad – marry someone – start family – my journey goes on – sun setting – darkness comes – world revolving – heart beating – journey done.
